Varehuset Messen

Ce point d’intérêt est disponible en audio dans le circuit: Visit Copenhagen, A Scandinavian jewel
You are now in Købmagergade street, a shopping avenue with many lovely buildings. A good example is n°42, on your right. This is Varehuset Messen, a former department store built in 1895 by Danish architect Emil Blichfeldt. Everbody knew of this place, yet it still closed in 1971. Today, the building is home to part of a high school. If you look up, you’ll see an impressive statue of Hermes on top, the messenger of the gods, recognisable by his helmet and winged sandals. This sculpture embellishes this historical building, making it one of the most interesting to see in this road!
